Abstract

Medical care is very important for a healthy life. However, it is very difficult to seek medical attention if you have a health problem. The recommended notion is to develop a medical chatbot that can adopt AI to analyze the ailment and produce necessary information concerning the conditions were discussing with a doctor.
